Listviews Item Selection

Question:
How can I select the whole row (with a bigger blue line) in a listview control? The default selects just the item located in the first column.

Answer:
That is the default behavior for a listview control as defined by Microsoft, and as such you cannot select the whole row. If you want a different behavior I would suggest you construct a new control based upon the datawindow.
